And I know I need to get over it but it still burns me up that they refer to blm and Antifa thuggery as “protests”. They wrote all kinds of articles saying most people didn’t do any violence. Then by that standard most people didn’t do anything on Jan 6.
I'll never forget the picture of that poor government worker cleaning up the "wreckage" the following day by.....sweeping up a few plastic water bottles 😂
They used a nifty bit of tortured statistics to arrive at these conclusions.
There were 700 violent BLM protests. They caused two billion dollars in damage. How do you whitewash such insane numbers?
Easy: you count every conceivable activity as a protest so that the total number of “protests” reaches 10,000. Now you can claim that 93% of protests were peaceful.
Never mind the fact that you are probably counting silly shit like fat people kneeling for the anthem or high schoolers staging a walkout to avoid taking a test.
Never mind that there were 700 violent protests that destroyed $2 billion in property (and killed a bunch of people).
All that matters is that you get to say “93% peaceful”.
Great analysis. I’ve been thinking a lot lately about these kinds of techniques, and how people hide truth or smuggle bad data past people’s attention (and I’ve posted a few times about such things lately). That kind of bullshittery is all over the media these days. Thank God there are still people out there who ask the follow up questions, or take a second look at the methodology, etc.
I tend to listen to old school country music but I downloaded this song. I wish he would’ve explicitly condemned the rioting animals of the summer of love.

By their standards the J6 protestors actually cleaned up the capital…
True

And don’t forget the ridiculous shill media articles claiming that Covid wasn’t being spread at these protests

Poor guy is trying to reason with the Left...
The correct response is: "If this song offends you, it's about you."
Alternatively,
"You're so vain,
You probably think this song is about you,
You're so vain (you're so vain),
I bet you think this song is about you,
Don't you don't you?"
Doesn't he get royalties for that from Apple? Maybe we give him a big cheque for once just to piss them off.
Oh noes looks like I accidentally purchased this evil hate song: https://imgur.com/a/ayKFh12
Whoopsies
Just saw this shit. Fuck the fags
Well I and presumptively many others would never have heard of this song if not for this so way to Streisand it.
Pretty based song. Not bad at all.
